This brought tears to my eyes, living in America since I was very young boy , I tried so hard to stay close to my Roots, My father would faithfully listen to these finals,since he passed away,I have not have the zeal to to watch, this blew me away especially when they played "long time".Thanks for taking time to post this Trinidadians in US please don't lose your ethnicity such a beautiful Culture
Thank you “Leon Edward Smooth” and the ALL STARS CREW for your magnificent rendition of Nadia Batson’s “So long”-truly a stirring performance evoking deep emotions of yesteryear and the splendor and beauty of TRINIDAD carnival. They may have STOLEN the championship from you but know that once again you’ve captured the hearts and minds of your already loyal supporters and have won over tons more.
I like this aircraft type of arrangement.... It appears the Bass pans and Rhythm are on auto pilot...... The Mid pans set on cruise control.... While the Voicing pans are full throttle....No need to fasten your seat belts ....... Dim the lights in the cabin ...... Ensure your hand luggage is safely secured in the overhead cabin....prepare for take off ...... Dancing permitted between aisles 1 to 43 ....... Estimate time of arrival 9.14 mins .... Safe flight.
All congrats to Renegades on another victory but jesus christ i actually heard conversations going on between these instruments in All Stars presentation. Smooth you are really a gifted arranger. These instruments were well tuned, clean clear sound and another performance for the books , well done All Stars . For me its another victory from deep within. All Stars forever.
Junior Jackman that’s why All Stars is my band for life..their pans always have a conversation with each other...no other band can do this! TAS for Evah!
This was my favorite Finals performance right after Renegades. But Duvone & Renegades burst out of the gates with a winning arrangement and blew everyone one away. Duvone's arrangement was almost perfect. Never needed to make drastic changes. Everyone else was playing for 2nd place. My congrats to the All Stars with a much improved Finals performance.
I CANNOT SAY FOR SURE THEY WON, BUT THEY WERE FAR-FAR- BETTER THAN ''RENEGADES ON THE FINAL NIGHTIN MY OPINION DUVONE LOST BOTH THE MEDIUM AND LARGE CATEGORIES,,,RESPECT AND BLESSINGS..
I have been looking on and admiring the mixed ages of the pan players, this is commendable as it adds to the longevity of pan in T&T. Great job All Stars.
There were no lines repeated like there was in Despers over and over. You had to be there to really appreciate the full spectacle that was the story of So Long. Tan Tan and Saga Boy are Trinidad Icons. We first saw them in 1990, created by Peter Minshall and you haven’t seen them in a while because they have been touring the world representing Trinidad culture... They haven’t seen each other in a while, so it’s a reunion, along with the loss of BWIA in 2006 to be replaced by Caribbean Airways. That was part two. Part three is ttt which has now returned to Trinidad airways. These are all part of the Trinidad culture that had gone away and come back home. Unlike Renegades these parades were all conducted to the left side of the band and not in your face, so to speak. The added musical samples enhanced the story of So Long... “Long Time” by Arrow... spoke about the party effect brought to you by All Stars. “Back Home” by Andre Tanker (I went away I leave and ah come back home) speaks of Trinis going away catching their A** and returning to Trinidad because they can’t see their way abroad. All in all, it was a story well told musically and performance wise, without a doubt, it was the first-place performance.
No no no I like All stars but Renegades way above the rest with arrangement alone I"ve been listening and comparing All Stars performance was really great but Renegades are ahead right now
I just watched this video one year later and had the exact thought about needing to be there live! I was there, and this video footage does not capture the visual and performative impact of the entrance of Tan Tan and Saga Boy in this rendition....especially when Tan Tan 'give' Saga Boy a wine! This was my favourite performance of the night.
All stars all the way them judge doh no noting they sleeping oh God sweet pan what went wrong some body answer God bless them and keep them safe and I will follow you all were ever you go Amen
All Stars were by far the best-sounding band on the night; tight and precise transitions with evenly toned pans from the Bass to the Cellos with a call and answer from the Tenors to the Celios. Our fans know the truth about the Duvone Conspiracy. This is obviously the second time an outright win and crowd pleaser was relegated to 3 or 4. The first was David Rudders Dus in your Face, Arranged by the late Eddie Quarless. The only time in the history of Panorama a band was asked for an encore.
Duvone Conspiracy lets examine that Duvone really gained attention in 2017 in in fact the bands that were looked at was All Stars And Despers but if you look honestly at the 2017 performance and arrangement by renegades They probably should have won but it was like a race All Stars had the momentum. they were playing the most popular song a song people needed and they had already took off . The judges may have had a mental bias like myself towards All Stars and Despers and its not unfair its just momentum. In 2018 First Band to play Bp Renegades and after that every other band literally had a mountain to climb and if they won't prepared licks In 2019 Duvone's arrangement out of this world nothing like in the history of our pan and I dear say if he arranges at this level all other arrangers either settle, move on or get to that level. I don't think its a conspiracy I thinks its reality. As a musician I am totally impressed with his work you got know what you are doing
Totally totally missed the outstanding presentation including Nadia Batson and Tan Tan and Saga Boy. What a crying shame, viewers of this stream never saw what actually happened on stage last night 😢
Mr baka yad we.good with third place in everyone heart they know Allstars win that panorama but we are a band know how to accept our losses. And i will leave you with this pantrinbago know why and the judges. But come monday and tuesday we.playing mass like we won peace out
Shirley Willis All stars is a victim of their own success. They’re always excellent on precision and timing, but outside of curry tambamca and woman on de bass, you could plug in any song they did the last three years and they sound the same; even when they won in 2017. Still the best steel band in the world though.
Listen with all due respect Douvon Stuart has risen the level. A level even the big bands have step up to and its good for pan music. Give Jack his jacket Renegades arrangement alone is out of this world
I still say AllStars came 2nd Place - There's no way Despers was better than AllStars. I had Despers in 6th Place after Invaders, Exodus and Phase II. The best Despers did , I think was 5th Place... Come on Haters ah ready fuh Allyuh .
Renegades by far had the best reharmonisation and their arrangement in its entirety told a full story. Despers arrangement was a musical journey and their tone of pans were very rich! All stars arrangement was great music but there was no story being told further down in the arrangement it sounded as if they were basically playing the first half again. Nevertheless they played the cleanest. All three were fair in my opinion for the reasons mentioned. All stars is in third only because their arrangement in its entirety couldn't stand up to the 2 before especially Renegades.

My heart goes out to the 3 Large Steelbands who were eliminated in a preliminary round, but was that round necessary ? All Hopeless, Fruitless PanTrinbago had to do was start their Semi Finals program 1 hour earlier and all 17 bands would have been accommodated. They probably saved on paying appearance fees, ent ? But then, what did it cost them in Transportation, meals, accommodation etc. just to have a Team of Judges, their accomplices, Security Details etc travelling about Trinidad and Tobago for several nights just to eliminate 3 bands ? .... Oh Ohhh, I just remembered, the Government ( Tax Payers ) is their financer.

Sure damn right about that. I was there
Nice Trinidad All Stars was always my favourite band growing up they did a good job playing that song good luck to all of them
All Stars have swagger. Never a dull moment
@@jayharper2959 That's True take care and enjoy the beat
What they did to Exodus was Criminal. Exodus played real pan, they were even better than Despers.
@@bakayad3196 sorry did not pay too much with attention to those two bands
We goh come again in 2020 All Stars. See you on the drag
They look like they are having a blast! I always love that...

Good performance, deserved 2nd place.

Sweet Pan.......Sweet Pan.....
Totally totally missed the outstanding presentation including Nadia Batson and Tan Tan and Saga Boy. What a crying shame, viewers of this stream never saw what actually happened on stage last night 😢
and what happened to All Stars Tv?
Cant believe what they do to EXODUS . These so call PAN controllers WICKED ND VENGEFUL. Keep on playing guys your FANS LOVE U MORE.
Yes they strike with the mighty pen. but seriously Exodus was way below par. Some of our bands need to start blooding new talent with the baton

Anybody else thinking they are playing a bit too fast? Their preliminary performance was pore raising in my view.
This play was alot cleaner than the preliminary tune but they still got robbed.
Sweet
